I'd go three at the back with arracking wing backs second half 😳.........

Bruce is changing everything ever two second, I wouldn't put it past him. He seems to be having a meltdown at the moment.

The funny thing is if we were 2-1 up at half time you could bet your house we'd lose.

This Barnsley team lost 3 of their best players, Winnall, Hourihane and Barnsley and are still beating us. This season is a complete nightmare, every bit as bad and as embarassing as last season.

Alternatively factually speaking I should point out Newcastle are losing, this is a golden opportunity to close the gap on the leaders.

If we were playing as bad as Barnsley we'd be 4-0 down.

We've been by far and away the better side. First time they come into the box they fall over and get a penalty!

Plenty of possession, crosses and efforts at goal, time to make the dominance count.

If we were 3-0 up I'd take that bet.

Why is he even playing Grealish? He cost us at least a point in Nottingham...hasn't come close to earning his spot all season and Bruce put him right back in after suspension?

Christ, what must we do to turn this malaise around? Marry a gypsy? Slaughter a goat by moon light? Push the panic button and eject Bruce?

God knows. I hope we can though. While we still have fans who care, I have to imagine people are going to be drifting away if this keeps up  :(

It sounds like we've played okay. We need to come out on fire though, show some intent.

Could be worse - you could be a Barcelona fan. They are losing 2-0

My heart bleeds for them.

We've scored a goal and Hutton had put the ball into the box. Are Villa fans never happy?

Apparently PSG play a snatch of Uptown Funk by Bruno Mars when they score.
